The $500,000 Maybach 62 Was the Ultimate 2000s Luxury Sedan 

Can we all take a minute to appreciate how original this channel has been. No matter how big his channel has gotten and how much money he’s making. He still films his videos the same way he did his first video. No over the top overlays, no gimmick intros, no stupid annoying music, no cringed transitions. No clickbait content. Salute this man for not selling out to a million endorsements looking to change his style.

This intercom joke was pretty funny and unexpected, though it had a hidden cars and bids advertisement, so it ends up with a Doug Score of 63 out of 100, which places it here against other "Doug is the type of guy" jokes

The fact that everything still works perfectly after 15 years is actually impressive

Doug is a type of guy to sit on the back seat of Maybach, using intercom joking about himself and laugh of it's own jokes:)

If Doug was a chauffeur, he would use the intercom every time to remind his passengers to check out cars and bids

Doug pointing fun at himself is so funny humble and it clearly shows he reads the comments and appreciates his fans!

It's crazy how loaded this car is. Also impressive everything still works after almost 20 years

The backseat/intercom part was hilarious. Doug’s the type of guy who can laugh at himself and have fun. Not something seen much these days. That’s what makes these videos fun too, love it.

I love how the intercom makes whoever is using it sound like a villain

This is just a hotel room with a v12 and wheels

It looks like a tank , but official perfomance sheet says it could do the 0 to 60 in 4.4 seconds . Not so bad for a 6.2 meters land yacht

12:00 The way those cupholders work is that the left button with the champagne holders brings out a lower piece of nice wood and chrome, but the other button when pressed brings out a different top part made of nice wood and chrome with regular cupholders

Hearing Doug talk through the intercom makes me think he would make a very flamboyant super villain.

This is just as extra as you'd expect from the pre-recession 2000s.

I started following this channel for the reviews of 90´s JDMs and super cars but these LUXURY car reviews are probably the most entertaining. 😄

Ok I've been binging these vids and the FUN he had with telecom is right up there with my FAVORITE Douge FUN moments, even over the faces/ reactions to the speedier cars. He's just a regular ole car nerd like so many of us

I’m suprised that doug didn’t have someone drive him around while sitting in the back to see how that feels.

Doug ought to do a compilation video of people interrupting him during filming. THAT would be entertaining.

I want to point a thing, Maybach's names are actually their lengths in meters. 62 is roughly 6.2 meters (244 inches) and 57 is roughly 5.7 meters (224 inches). So when Doug mentions 62 as "chauffeurs' car" and 57 as "drivers car", remember that the "Short Wheel Base" version is actually 5.7 meters long which makes it longer than every single F segment car including their LWB variants. Im talking about BMW 7 series, Mercedes S Class, Audi A8; the SWB Maybach is longer.

*Intercom ringing* “it appears that we are approaching a tunnel, would you like me to proceed onto the throttle?”

Doug’s the kind of guy to make “Doug’s the kind of guy” joke.

This car is the living proof that technology that will be ‘common’ in 20 years is already available, but too expensive to put into cars. Mercedes really went all out on this. Really impressive.

This guy can make you opt for an old school car to new model when he describes it!!! I love ur presentation

I love how exciting Doug is e.g. presenting the intercom

“Would you like some wheels with your hotel suite?”

Doug during the day: “I’m like 6’3 or 6’4” Doug at night: “I’m like 7 or 8”

Shoutout to Doug for being so likeable and keeping it the same as the early days regardless of his financial change! Hell support

Doug seems to always add something unexpectedly funny and humble like his voice over the intercom 😂 ❤

Maybach: “We know you’re loaded & like coke, so we’ve supplied you mirrors you can do your lines on.”

We need Doug to go get measured so he can finally pick between 6'3'' or 6'4''

Ive been in something rather similar to the maybach and it was amazing. So just to know that this thing is still around, anyone would be lucky enough to afford and ride in the luxury of this car

The Maybach 62 is truly a magnificent car. Keeping in mind that Doug is over 6'3'' the front seat is not as cramped as purported. Also, the big issue with this car is maintenance cost, which is prohibitive for most drivers.

He should’ve had a friend or someone drive for a bit so he could sit in the back and let us see what being chauffeured in that car is like.

Maybach included a cocaine mirror. That's quite the feature.

When I started this video, I thought to myself: this is going to be the longest "quirks and features" segment yet. I was not disappointed.

Doug the type of guy to talk about the back of the seat, yet ends his review as the driver. Come on Doug, you gotta have a crew member drive cars like this for you.

When Doug said the car cost 500k I thought to myself “the only way I’d buy a car that looks like this is if it had a twin turbo v12.” Then he said it did and my mind was fucking blown.

Doug: nothing is plastic there was attention to detail everywhere only the finest Materials Also Doug: Quality is fine 7/10

Doug is a perfect intercom guy for any public facilities lmao

Has to be the most impressive car interior I've ever seen. Seems almost more luxurious than ultra luxury vehicles of today

Doug's hilarious. He's the dad with awful jokes we all pretend to be embarrassed by but can't help but smile from ear to ear when he shows up.

THIS is the content we crave

This is my dream car. Hands down. The most unique automobile I’ve ever seen. Even rolls can’t match the “cocoon”

I’d rather be in this than any other new roll Royce, Bentley or Mercedes nice car, this seems so nice and comfortable. This one of the best cars I’ve ever seen and it would be so nice to take a long road trip in this car.

For the first time in Doug Demuro history: -He's more excited in this video than the other -This video probably has the most mid-roll ad in his channel

I love how excited doug is when he reviews a quirky cars

I seriously adore him and support everything he does. He hasn’t changed. Love love him.

The 2000's Maybach [especially the 57, which is somewhat better proportioned than the 62] is one of the best looking ultra luxury cars ever, I reckon. It gave a lot of design cues to the contemporary Merc S class and various other car makers.

It's true name is "cognoscenti". GTA IV fans will know.

Doug the type of guy to fart in the back of his Maybach and say “excuse me” through the intercom.

I still love this car. A good preserved ones with great paint looks cool and has a cool presence on the road

Doug, whenI worked for Lucent Technologies in the early 2000’s, our Denver Executive Briefing Center had similar glass. In the main briefing room there was a long conference table, the back wall was opaque glass, about 30’ long. The executive briefer when they wanted to could press a button, instantly the opaque glass became crystal clear, showcasing the Definity PBX Cabinets and other data gear. It’s electrically charged glass, called…Snap Glass.

Doug is the type of guy who doesn't realize those mirrors are cocaine mirrors

“Hellooo everyone, this is Doug. QUIRKS AND FEATURESSSS HAHAHAHAHA” - Doug 2021

Some people hate this car,but I absolutely love it. I love cars that dont give me screen anxiety and feel like a place where you would relax, sit in an alien compound.

I don't know the level of luxury on this but all the attention to detail on this is like holy crap.

“It’s not your Bach it’s mybach” - Doug DeMuro probably

Doug the type of guy that talks while telling us to listen to how quiet the engine is.

Such a good video. In the end though I wanted you to be driven around. For cars like this maybe have a friend do this for you so you can feel the truest experience. Thank you for all of your amazing content sir. Please keep them coming.

Thissssssss issssssssss ! This is the entry when Doug opens a video

"Like a Plebeian" Your next shirt offering.

doug is the type of guy to wear a 5 dollar t shirt while reviewing a 500k car

Haha love this channel. This purchase is the last one I would ever make. But watching you do it has value.

I can't believe I use to dislike Doug DeMuro's videos. He is the best!

“Hey girl, are you a car? Because I like your quirks and features.” -Doug DeMuro on a date, 2021

to quote James May: "It lacks the absolute snob-appeal of a Rolls-Royce".

i feel like ringing up your driver to tell them to close the sunshade is a lot more work than just pushing a button next to you

16:25 Replace the outdated phone with a handgun, could be handy.

“Hello everyone this is dougs quirks and features!” 😂😂😂😂😂 too funny

Looks like the personal mirror still had Coke residue

Doug, it’s been two years and I still don’t understand how that dual-cupholder console thing works. Actual magic for sure.

At work. The intercom portion just made my day.

Lexus sees video Lexus: _"we need to add a toilet and a bidet in the rear seats in our next LS"_

i honestly don’t think that any of those “hand mirrors” were used as mirrors

This is an amazing machine. An amazing fusing of form, function and Uber luxury.

This is the best Doug Demuro video I’ve ever seen in my entire life.

Doug's wife : How do I look ? Doug : 6 out of 10.

my chauffeur was too tall, and kept saying "this". so I fired him.

5:05 😂 You're awesome Doug. That was hilarious.

Honestly as a person in 2023 if I could ride this car I would in a heartbeat!!! Awesome car and even with some outdated features I would be VIBING in the back. Absolute luxury and so well thought out. An amazing car. Mercedes always killing it with that amazing ride quality too. When I was a teen my rich uncle gave my mom his Mercedes to take care of while he wasn’t driving it for a few years and that thing was AMAZING. I went from a Toyota Avalon to absolute smooth driving. There’s nothing like it! If I thought that was good I’m sure this car is like driving on air! Amazing car and I hope I can ride in one even once in my lifetime!

Refrigerator: “it’s not in between the seats, instead it is in between the seats”

No joke this is car probably has the most amazing interior ever

I think even today's bentleys don't have these much quirks and features

This is the ultimate Uber ride. No contact with the customer and easy.

So you're telling me that the damn sunroof costs more than my entire car?????

24:01 ,,The Germans say ,,My Bok" it's correct" actually no! We say Maybach. Type it in translate and pronounce it in German lmaoo

My 2004 VW Phaeton had some of the features that were quirks of this car (the sun visor, the heated/cooled rear seats w/ Massage feature etc). a the time it felt so cutting edge (had Nav w/ color screen, & vents that hid themselves behind wood). i totally miss that car. anyways memory lane aside. Great review on all the features of the Maybach & just how truly opulent it was & how amazing it coudl have been if they'd punched it up a little style wise.

I would love to have one, but there's one fatal deal breaker -- I wouldn't always be driven around, I would drive a lot by myself... The front seats can't recline and they don't move back much, even Doug barely fits in there, I'm a bit taller than Doug, so no Maybach 62 for me. :(

Wait... he's not going to tell us how those cupholders work?! 12:00

Doug’s the type of guy to turn a “Doug’s the type of guy” joke into a cars and bids ad

"THIS" never gets old

Mercedes was really ahead of their time when they made this🔥 that’s why their my favorite.

Besides the screens and styling, this car is pretty timeless. The interior holds it's own even 15+ years later.

Don’t let Hoovie see this or he’ll start asking for parts...

For that price, it should have ballistic panels and glass all the way around. In the front cabin where the old phone popped out, now a pop out with a Glock 19.

DOUG IS SO LOVEABLE

Damn Maybach brought back the 80's Lamborghini cocaine mirrors

Me: **gets in maybach** Intercom: *"Check out Cars & Bids"* Me: **CONFUSED SCREAMING**

I remember 3 or 4 years ago a local lottery winner had one in a village in England. He complained it wasn't fast it wasn't comfortable it wasn't a good drive.

Crazy to know that Maybach was a different sedan than S class back in the days , Not just Luxury version of S class like nowadays.
